Her poems have appeared in English Journal, Belt Magazine, Whiskey Island, Into the Void, and elsewhere. She tweets @MegNev. Poet Jose Olivarez said of her new chapbook, Rust Belt Love Song, “Megan Neville’s poems are unflinching in their observations of cruelty and tenderness alike. Rust Belt Love Song is still music, and Neville is a worthy artist—stretching ordinary moments to show all of the wonder, pain, and yes, love that exists just under the surface.” The post Megan Neville — Episode #92 appeared first on Talks with Teachers.
